One of three postage Hundertwasser stamp for the Republic of Senegal (together with 784A and 785A)
Hundertwasser was on friendly terms with Léopold Sédar Senghor, the President of the Republic of Senegal. Senghor gave the opening speech at the Salzburg Festival of 1977. In it he spoke of Austria's mission, as a land of culture, to contribute to the symbiosis of various cultures, thus making it a universal factor of human progress. He cited three examples for this idea: Wolfgang A. Mozart, Rainer Maria Rilke and Friedensreich Hundertwasser. With each of these artists, he maintained, it is apparent that they were exposed to the influence of different cultures, which they assimilated and formed into a symbiosis, and this symbiosis became for them a means of lending expression to what is essentially human and what is, as such, beyond all expression.
